A little bit about me
My name is Dianne and I’m 20 years old, and I’ve been a nanny for about a year now, working with kids from 0 to 12. I’ve been so lucky to have worked with some amazing families, which has given me tons of experience and fantastic references! I absolutely love kids, and being a nanny for a year has led to wonderful friendships with other nannies, which means lots of time hanging out with other kids!
